Exercising Human Rights

Gender, Agency and Practice

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Exercising Human Rights investigates why human rights are not universally empowering and why this damages people attempting to exercise rights. It takes a new approach in looking at humans as the subject of human rights rather than the object and exposes the gendered and ethnocentric aspects of violence and human subjectivity in the context of human rights. This book is significant for anyone with an interest in human rights campaigns and in the study of political images.
